I like those rims, but where did you find the tires to go with those rims? And what size are they? I am looking into getting some 19's but cant find tires that fit

The wheels are nicer angled towards the sun. You see all sorts of color . Mostly brown and green between the spokes and it's great because it reflects off the polish lips. But NIGHT TIME it looks more like black chrome

Skankz is that the unfinished CF grill that was in the classifieds that ggong was selling? Looks great! You get into an accident and jack your hood up? Its shifted to the left big time! Cars looks good still!

@Jimp: Thanks! Love it too

@BigBody: Yes it's ggong! When i received it, it needed some elbow grease and it was good to go. And yes sadly i was involved in an accident D: If only it was less complicating than that. The hood seem to still be aligned it's just the support beam that's misaligned. Frank said it would be a hassle to fix and hard. So I just left it.

I was in my school parking lot sticking the head out to get out and a SUV zip past by and hit the passenger side of the bumper (nothing happen to his car.. his tire hit my bumper) It cracked basically the edge of the bumper where the impact strips are and it messed up my support beam.. that's why it look shifted to the left But it looks aligned at a angle! That's why i try to take pictures at a angle

@White Horse: When it was silver it was 18x8 and 18x9 and i had them rebarrel to 18x9 and 18x10, powdercoated to solar rain, and repolished.

@anthonyy: Thanks! But as i looked at it i thought the iridium silver was too silver for that silver color and it was old and chippy so i had to change the color.

thanks guys!

@Frank: I know right LOL! I blame the vs-xx's I got because the faces disk were just a bad combo to try to do an aggressive stance. it's not too bad.. if not flush with the fender but a poking out more. I need to go 10mm in the back to make it more even. No rub at all because I guess you can say its not slammed. The back is dropped all the way and the front have half a coil left. The rears don't rub but the front do just a little on the freeway on small bumps.

@Tru: the tires are 225/40/18 all around. I might go different once these tires go out. After I rebarrel them I needed new tires so I just bought them from my wheel guy for $100 all four mounted and balance.

I got the bumpers from Robert(Cappa26).


***BTW! Does anyone know where to get cheap conical lug bolts? I need 12x1.50 with (10)55mm shank and (10)50mm shank. I can find the 50mm shank easily but not the 55mm. RADUSADIRECT is charging $3.99 per for the 55mm plus shipping

AND for my work vs-xx's does it really make a difference if i use ball or cone seat? i'm suppose to be using cone but i'm using ball for now and see nothing wrong?

thanks

cool cool....i guess the lighter engine you have up front was the difference because when i had that much poke my fender was chewing up my front tires on bumps during turns. now, no more rubbing since i raise it up to a even 1 finger front and rear gap.

so you are the famous Macbook trade...LOL

HAHAHA. You do what you gotta do! I'm not sure what was happening there.. I wanted the bumpers or the macbook. I think there was either a delay on the bumpers that made me get the macbook first or the sale on the macbook was ending. After i got the macbook and open it i'm like this is it? Dropping a grand for this .. i'm like eff this I need to get the bumpers haha! But luckily he wanted the macbook

Just painted my calipers red - waiting on my "Mercedes Benz" decals for the calipers to finish the job. Also had my windows tinted (35%) this week - what do you think?

I was wondering what front and rear bumpers those are? I like how clean they are.
